Just curious, what does the Sears horn, you are looking for, look like? I assume fir a Sears car?

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Marshal, those caps are about a nice as they come. I seriously doubt that you could find nicer original caps, I have seen many that are not even half a nice.

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Does anyone know, or have the contact information, for the fellow who had the old BMW motorcycle that had the auxiliary rear axle setup that powered the sidecar? If so please share here. Thanks, Mike Lebsack

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Found Dale. Thanks

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Trying to contact Dale Kimmerer from Medford, Oregon. We are both at Chickasha but I do not have his cell phone number to locate him. Contact me at 319- four thirty-4995 with his cell number if you know it. Thanks, Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Here is my guess, based on personal experience. Loosen your fourth main and pull is back about halfway or slide it out. You may then be able to turn the engine over as before. If you can then you likely have a slightly bent pan. It takes very little to bind up the crank with a misaligned pan/fourth ...

I have a Russ Potter restored 1911 only version of the Kingston 5 ball carb. I have had in a display case since I had Russ restore it so it is as nice as they come. The 1911 version is a rare bird. I will bring to Chickasha only if there is sincere interest or spoken for. $3000 or best offer. Mike T...

I am bring to Chickasha a bunch of usable parts/hardware, including an excellent 6- oval hole bonnet, for E&J 466 headlights. My restorations are now done so it makes no sense to have these sitting on a shelf for the next 20 years. It took me close to 5 years to find the parts to restore 2 pair for ...

I have a nice box of Atwater Kent related distributors and extra parts for them including condensors. I would like to sell my entire collection of these as a single lot at Chickasha. See me there and we can certainly make a win/win deal. I am located right next to Russ Potter in the Northwest corner...

I have a used Torpedo hood for sale in pretty good condition and can bring to Chickasha. These are nice fir speedsters with overhead valve engines that tend to bite into the firewall of the stock set up. I’m thinking $250. Thanks, Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

I have a very nice brass Magneto horn, the type used in 1915 Couplets I believe. It is clean and nice but it needs some tuning by an expert who knows mag horns. Can anyone steer me to a person who really knows how to work on a mag horn? Mike 319 four thirty, 4995. Thanks, Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

I have 3-4 pretty nice 1914 windshields that are surplus to my needs. One might have original glass in it. I can deliver to Chickasha if anyone is interested. $250 to $350 depending on condition. May also have some 1914 coil boxes as well. I can be reached at 319- fourthirty-4995. Mike

FYI concerning the McLaren 30x3.5 “demountable” rims that Dom has had a very close call with. No question, that was obviously a close call and a disaster was averted. As many of you know I purchased only the “wire wheel” portion of the McLaren wire wheel business. I do not manufacture any of the rim...

I recently acquired an approximately 15-20 year old set of Rockies but I do not have the instructions.

Just a friendly reminder. As I said, “I think” I have 2, maybe 3-4 of the new oval tanks. I purchased a group of new round tanks and I think I may have gotten some ovals. They are still in unopened boxes so I will have to confirm what I actually have and that will be in 3-4 weeks. Once I know for ce...

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

I believe that I have a pair or two of the new oval gas tanks that are still in the shipping boxes. Not sure if I have new straps to go with them, will have to check. If I do I will bring them to Chickasha. I will not be able to check for another 3-4 weeks, too much going on. Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

A few years ago I contacted Larry Sigworth from Oklahoma about overhead valve lubrication. I recall that he shared that he had very good results using some kind a spray lubricant thus little or no need for the more messy oiling practices. I think Larry may have passed on but not certain. Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

Once I verify that I have a set I will price and post them for sale on this site since I do not have the correct Ts to use them on. Mike

Mike Lebsack-Iowa

I am thinking I may have a complete original set of these with original or new engraved glass. I think I purchased them from Fred Huston years ago. I will check next time I am at my shop. I know they were nicely boxed and separated with old newspaper to protect the glass and finish. More later. Happ...

We are machining a pair of new straight axles and have a couple questions. We have a pair of badly worn originals but would like to verify two things. 1. What width should the key way be?

We are in the process of restoring a 1910-11 widetrack rear axle. Both straight (non-tapered) end axles are badly worn at both ends since the Hyatt bearings (inner and outer) more or less destroyed these axles. Vendors were carrying replacement axles a few years back but are no longer available. By ...

Top spring is not visible when installed so you might consider a non taper more common to leaf. Just an idea.
